 Good basic control, limited zoom control August 12, 2008
This unit is very compact, easy to mount on a small tripod or mono-pod handle, and of excellent quality. If you only want to zoom to a fixed level then start capture with a fixed zoom, this is a great bargain. If you want to zoom while shooting, be aware that it only supports two speeds so your zooms will be very jumpy if you initiate or stop zooming during the capture. There isn't a way to support smooth variable zoom. If you want crash zooms, this is fine. If you want precise control, this isn't the control for you.
Good news is that most cinematic fare is captured without active zoom, so this control is adequate for many uses.
 Don't pay $200 for Canon's camcorder remote April 25, 2008
This works fine on my Canon ZR10 camcorder--they want more than $200 for their remote, but their remote is also a LANC, so this is a much cheaper alternative. Note that the newer Canon camcorders do not have a LANC connector, it looks similar to a small stereo connector but smaller.
The power, zoom, record, and picture buttons all work while in camcorder mode. The only button that works while in VCR mode is the power (a limitation I suspect that would be present regardless of the remote.)
 Nice gadget, keeps image steady August 21, 2007

At first glance this appeared to be almost too small to use, cheaply made and the clamp too tiny. Wrong on all impressions. It is well made, small, but easy to use, and the clamp opens very wide! The cable is long - you can mount the camera several feet away or on a tripod. I use it with my Bogen video head - the clamp opens more than enough to accommodate the handle - plus it has rubber pads on both sides, so it grips firmly. The only negative point - the remote only has two zoom speeds. Slow and fast. My camera has a variable zoom, and I really like it.
It took a little getting used to the zoom speeds, but it was not that big a deal.
The biggest advantage is that I can geep my hands off the camera and on the tripod. This keeps the shots steadier!
Wired remote is easy to use August 20, 2007
Simply works. I wish, however, it were a wireless unit because the length of the wire restricts the photographer's mobility.
Great item at a great price. April 5, 2007
I bought this item to be used with my Sony HDR-HC3 camcorder in combination the fig rig. It works as advertised. I do wish the clamp portion of the item was removeable, but it can be worked around. I found the remote to be very responsive, as you would expect from Sony. And the price was a bargin.
